City Addick's reforming?

razilrazil
in General Charlton
Hi folks.

As this topic was touched on in another thread, I thought I would mention that myself and another had toyed with this idea. I brought it back to life some years ago, and then handed the baton over to Curb_it.

The basic idea would be to meet once a year for a social in the city - although I currently work in Eltham making it a little awkward. Hopefully we could attract some new blood to help organise it, if so it could work.

I'm not sure what the appetite is however, if it's of interest to you please sign up to the Facebook page @cityaddicks. If we get enough interest it may well be a goer.

    I'm an ex-City man so would happily sign up though if the social doesn't coincide with my UK trips then I'm afraid I won't be making it.

    So far for the City Addicks we have possibles from Phuket and Eltham. Hopefully the next poster will be from an EC postcode!

    PS I couldn't find the Facebook page. The link directs me to a member page on CL.

    I've attended several City Addicks meetings in the past and found them enjoyable evenings. I'd be happy to attend any future meetings.

    It was at a City Addicks meeting I introduced @LoOkOuT to @AFKABartram to each other and suggested that they work together on a new type of Charlton forum.

    But they don't like me talking about that.

    With social media i think it gets harder and harder to attract people to "live" events but if you can find a good venue it could work.

    Count me in

    Arguing about duck tape versus duct tape will be even more fun over a few pints.

    Don't do Facebook and work in Canary Wharf these days, but I'd go along and know a couple of others who would too.

    B organised some good nights before - Counting House was used a few times I think.

    Not all about guests - but once a year should be doable anyway

    Personally don't think it would work without guests, had some great nights with Richard Murray, Martin Simons, David White etc and various players past and present.

    If it involves city 'corporate type' folk, can we please ensure that we spend the afternoon/evening talking about: Road Maps; Boiler Plates; Heat Maps; Conference Calls; Q1,2,3,4 and all that other complete and utter arrogant corporate guff! Cheers.

    One of the reasons I quit the City and the corporate world in general. None of this bollocks when you run your own business, especially in a place like Thailand.

    I'd be up for it. I'm in the city a fair bit even though I live overseas. Maybe I'd even coincide a trip with @Bangkokaddick. He owes me a drink.
